[STFU] Parents: Talk to your kids about ’sexting’ today!
December 6th, 2008 by Dave StudinskiKnown in fear-mongering circles as “sexting,” today’s youngsters are using their hip new mobile devices to send sexual messages to each other. You know: Just like you did with notebook paper way back when!
The most recent public example of awkward teens going through puberty: Two cheerleaders were suspended from their Seattle-area high school squad after sending nude photos of themselves to people who apparently gave a shit. Now, one of the teen’s parents are suing the school district.
Below, CNN Headline News pundits explain how teens today are engaging in sexual misconduct using phones their parents bought them.
We’ll leave the asinine nature of this situation to itself. Let’s focus on the commentary.
Ms. Pundit/expert Dr. Dr. Sari Locker: Good luck finding a phone without a camera. Why don’t you have a phone with a camera? Clearly no one is interested in you.
Locker’s Web site image would demand you think otherwise:

Oh, we’re not done with this one yet. I’ll take hypocritical for $500, Alex.
Wait until you see what books this angel has written – it’s below the fold.
Locker makes note of three factors causing this outrageous act of … trying to impress other people using what ya mamma gave ya.
- Parents (They enabled them with the technology.)
- Desire to perform (Celebrities take off their tops, so must teens.)
- Partner pressure (Boys have other options these days, so the girls have more pressure to put out!)
Hm. I wonder who helps facilitate this pressure. I wouldn’t be able to find it at, say, a neighborhood Barnes & Noble, would I?
These are all books penned by Locker, courtesy her bio page:
- Mindblowing Sex in the Real World (1995), a hip and savvy book about sex for twentysomethings.
- Sari Says: The Real Dirt on Everything From Sex to School (2001), a great multi-topic teen advice book, which was awarded by the American Library Association
- The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Being Sexy (2000) that discusss how to look, act, and feel sexier
- The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Amazing Sex (1999; 2003; 2005), a comprehensive 480 page book about all aspects of sex for adults of all ages
Mindblowing Sex in the Real World. Yeah, and the celebrities are the problem?

Locker goes on to explain the “partner pressure” factor, saying:
“Boys nowadays are looking at online pornography.”
Fucking-a! Say it ain’t so!! THEY’RE DOING THIS CRAZY MASTURBATING THING, TOO! GOD ALMIGHTY CAN ANYONE STOP THE MADNESS!?!
Nowadays? As in 2008? Because the Internet didn’t have porn in 1998? No – it did. I checked. And then I read the techniques.
Thanks, Doc!
